lyrics

SO MANY MILES AWAY FROM HERE A CANAL LIES WAITING
IN THE SPARKLING WATERS, A REFLECTION OF A YOUNGER ME
HOW I PROMISED I WOULD RETURN
BUT I WILL NEVER LEARN
THAT PROMISES CANNOT MAKE THINGS HAPPEN

IN MY DREAMS NOW I SEE THOSE BLACK WATERS
QUIETLY STILL, RUNNING DEEP
A REFLECTION OF AGE
BRICK CHIMNEYS STANDING TALL
THESE DARK FIGURES OF GHOSTS
ONCE SO POWERFUL
NOW LEFT BEHIND TO CRUMBLE
FOR A JOYLESS END
BROKEN BY THE OCCASIONAL HEADLIGHTS
SHINING ON GRAFITTI WALLS
THAT REFLECT MY MIND
SHINING EYES THAT HAVE SEEN SO MUCH
AND HIDE SO MUCH
IN A BLINK WILL BE SHUT FOREVER
ALL THOSE HOPES AND DREAMS
AND BROKEN PROMISES
WILL NOT HAUNT ME ANYMORE
AND THE HOURS AND HOURS AND HOURS
OF ENDLESS LONELINESS

THE HOURS AND HOURS OF ENDLESS LONELINESS
